Highlander is a recognized benchmark in the field of medium-sized SUVs. Many medium-sized SUVs are clamoring to be enemies of Highlander as soon as they are launched, but can you easily shake the status of the king? However, there is an SUV in the domestic independent brand camp, which has been regarded as a "thorn in the side" by Highlander since its listing, and regarded as an opponent by the king, which is a kind of glory. Today, we will introduce this Guangzhou Automobile Chuanqi GS8.

Appearance size

To tell the truth, the design of Chuanqi GS8 really matches its market segment. Using Lingyunyi 3.0 design language, the large air intake grille on the front face is filled with heavy chrome-plated metal decoration. The shape of the square headlight group is very recognizable, and the front surrounding structure has also been completely designed. The length, width and height of the car body are 4835 *19/kloc-0 *1765 mm, and the wheelbase is 2800mm, which is not inferior to Highlander.

The side lines are tough, and the chrome decoration of C-pillar and D-pillar is very fashionable, creating the feeling of suspended roof, and the 20-inch rim is very shocking. The tail is wide and thick, the taillights are square, the high brake lights are very eye-catching, and the double exhaust pipes on both sides are heavy and powerful.

Internal configuration

Chuanqi GS8 adopts an embracing cockpit design, and the T-shaped center console is very symmetrical. Decentralized ergonomic chair, covered by leather stitching technology, is very comfortable. 12.3-inch LCD instrument panel and 10. 1 inch touch LCD screen are very scientific and technological, and most models can open panoramic skylights.

Power chassis

Chuanqi GS8 is equipped with a 2.0T turbocharged engine with a maximum horsepower of 252 horsepower and a maximum torque of 390Nm. Matching the 6-speed automatic manual transmission, the comprehensive fuel consumption of the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology is 7.9-8.7L；; ; High-equipped models adopt timely four-wheel drive system. Chassis suspension adopts front McPherson independent suspension and rear multi-link independent suspension.

abstract

It can be seen that the power performance of Chuanqi GS8 is also ahead of Highlander, which is why Highlander should regard it as a "thorn in the side". However, according to relevant news, the newly redesigned Highlander will be listed soon, and the benchmarking may be more convincing. Finally, I hope that domestic independent brands can create more good models that make foreign brands jealous!
